“Stocked, even the day before Xmas they still had decorations and things for Xmas. They were already putting Valentine items out. It was busy but no lines. In and out.”
“We love Ollie's but this is the first ti.e we have been to this one. It was messier and less organized than the one in Harlingen. That is why we didn't rate it higher. But we will go back.”
“I don't live on this side of town... but I walked into this Dollar Tree store on FM 78. I was blown away. It is by far.... the cleanest and most organized Dollar Tree/Dollar General type of store I have been inside of. Extremely friendly staff... and the store... my goodness so clean and organized... I can't say that enough. My hat's off to the management and staff.”
“Great deals 7.99 dollars for a 2 pack of sweatpants great deal they didn't have a really good category for shoes but they did have some good outfits and nice deals on saratoga water I guess but nice store overall”
“I really like the employees here. They're always really friendly, helpful and polite. This Dollar store has a lot of variety and it's kept organized and clean.”
“The cashier kaneisha was very friendly and efficient. Then as we exited a young lady who was stocking shelves told us to have a nice day. The best service I’ve received in any dollar tree”
“So I spend a fair amount of time in dollar stores because while sometimes the bargains are not actually the deal you bargained for, I just like the overall feel of most of them. Dollar General isn’t favorite. Every time I see one I haven’t been in before, I have to go in. Anyway, I’ve been to this one many times before and while I’ve always had pretty good experiences with the employees in all of them, today one of the employees was kind to me in a way I really needed and you don’t see much of anymore. I’m really struggling financially right now, every day is a fight to have shelter, food…well I was short on my bill and instead of voiding everything out or looking down on me, she just covered the difference out of her pocket.To her and to whoever might read this…you might think little stuff like that doesn’t matter much but I can tell you, when you’re trying to do the right stuff but it seems like everything is still going wrong, when you’re hungry and you feel ashamed because you can’t seem to get it together like other people have, and when you really just need somebody to just be a little nice to you…and somebody blesses you like that…yeah, it matters. You never know…one small gesture might be what keeps somebody hanging onto hope, however threadbare it feels to them.So thank you for being nice to me today, Kind cashier from DG, please know it made all the difference cuz I really needed it.Also this store is always very clean, pretty well stocked and checkout is not too slow, relative to the lines in most dollar stores. Go here.”
“Very clean and organized but is one of the smaller stores and doesn't have a large arts & crafts section. However, the employees are always helpful and professional.”
“Very convenient place to shop for just about anything you can get at a large grocery store and more. I love that I can go in and out and not have to wait in a long line. This is also my favorite place to coupon!”
“I've recently moved into this area and found this store close to home. I recently went in to take advantage of a special buy and the young lady who helped me was very helpful and very nice. She helped make my trip quick and easy. They keep this store pretty well stocked making it easy to stop in here and pick up what I need. Keep up the good work.”
“Been going to this store for years and nick decides to refuse service to me guess that promotion got to his ego he said I had a loaud tone to him what a piece of work I ride a motorized bike of course my voice may be a bit loud plus all the traffic I pass by and not to mention the train plus I'm deaf in one ear because of military combat what a character I mean to tell ya get a little power and let it go to your head I'm mean come on dude you work at a dollar store your dream job right well fella good luck you treat veterans horrible and you sir will fail not to mention 9 times outta 10 when I buy dip it's moldy and gross the manager allows me to open it before I buy it I mean do you won't moldy dip and nick said that's illegall um no”
“DT is raising their prices. So is everyone else! Same stuff they always have. Not sure what else to say. Most you can buy at Wal.art cheaper. Plus better quality. Up to you! Some items are cheaper and better quality at Walmart. For example; cards, some school supplies, toiletries etc. Make up, body oils, and lotions from some of the You Tube videos I've watched find The DT cheaper than Walmart. Overall my DT experience was great. If you go to one DT looking for a specific item and it's not there, go to the next DT I'm sure they will. Or you can order online and pick it up at your local store.”
“This Dollar General has the best employees. Always friendly. The manager, Melvin, is very knowledgeable of his store. It's always clean. Before he came to manage this store the employees were super rude. Good management shows thru his employees”
“Excellent service some of them happy to help you when couponing and they are happy to help you always and friendly people. The lady with the glasses she is awesome best of best.”
“Found an assortment box of different sized zipper food storage bags. 5$ but pretty cool. They also installed scanners so you can determine prices while shopping! Excellent idea with the price assortment they have.”
“This is the cleanest dollar general I have been to. And the managers and employees are very sweet and very helpful w everything. Even w making sure I put my stuff in my car w my grandbaby”
“I just wanted to share that this Dollar Tree is always clean, and the aisles are very well organized. The employees who work in the morning are always welcoming and very nice. They are usually trying to stock the floor but they always make sure to greet you when you walk in. Even when you walk up to the registrar to pay, they don't make you feel like a bother, they always rush over to help get you all rung up to pay. The customer service is always on point. Just thought I'd share.”
“Very understaffed. Every time I go in, you can see the one employee working has to stock shelves as well as work the register. Otherwise it’s a typical dollar general, stuff everywhere”
“I always enjoy shopping at Dollar General! The store is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. The staff are friendly and helpful every time I visit—they’re quick to assist and always greet customers with a smile. Prices are great, and the selection keeps getting better, especially for household essentials and seasonal items. It’s the perfect place for quick trips when I need something affordable and convenient. Highly recommend this location!”
“Forgot to take pics but this what I got. They have lots of halloween stuff & only paid $40 all my stuff was under $5 but they have halloween stuff over that price.”
“Ollies is a great store! Lots and lots of stuff to look at/buy. I go in for one or two things and leave with a cart full. Lots of food stuff (great prices on spices!!), household items, some clothing, car things, even some furniture and mattresses.”
“Got to the store and the employees almost simultaneously said hello. This store was so clean and organized. Easy to find items. Highly recommend this one. Definitely a 5 star..”
“Nice staff as I said before, however, I would ask you to verify the prices you are being charged at the register compared to what price is shown on the shelf. On several occasions I was charged a different price than was shown for items on their shelf price tag. One time it was because the count per box was different and they didn't sell the item listed on the price tag in the quantity shown. Then today same item, new price tag on the shelf and the item scanned for $.25 more. I showed them a photo I snapped of the price on the shelf but they didn't believe me. They went and looked and came back and corrected my price on the items I bought. I am not saying anything other than double check that you are charged the same price as what they listing it for.”
“I shopped at the store almost every single day during my stay in new Braunfels. 8/2025-11/28/2025. I slept in the parking lot in front of their store repairing my car little by little. I’m sure they never knew that I was sleeping in the parking lot. They did get used to seeing me every day though, and they were always kind to me. I did manage to stop in there on the last day To say goodbye, but the usual staff was not there. I slept in my car and delivered DoorDash one day at a time until my car was roadworthy to get back to Florida. And that time I replaced almost the entire cooling system. Radiator, all hoses, fans , front and rear brakes, all 4 tires and more. I felt very at home and very safe in this parking lot. Nobody ever bothered me once. Of course, I was gone most of the time until I was ready to sleep. At that point, I would cover up all my windows and go to sleep in peace. This store was always clean and staffed as much as possible. It’s nothing new to most people that lines can get long during peak periods. Also…: For thanksgiving the store manager packed me a to go plate and gave it to me at the door. As well as some donuts, and juice.”
“They're usually really clean and have decent young employees that get to you as soon as they can. They do wonderful and usually are great customer service. Occasionally theres arises issue with the ac and bathrooms but its usually the city or HVAC people that are the issue.”
“This is my go to store for convenience. In and out. Plus they have good deals.i picked a 15 pack of Keystone e light for $6.50.. unheard of $3.00 off the regular price. I'm also liking how fast I was in and out.”
“Good place and good customer service. Sometimes they don't have what you are looking for and there are times when the coolers are busted, but most of the time you will be in and out pretty quick.”
“Came in to this dollar general to load cash app card. The transaction was quick and easy and the cashier was nice and helpful. As I was in line I noticed this item.. honestly I figured you may get a kick out of this one.... I got a good chuckle out of it.”
“Our local Dollar General is basically a neighborhood treasure chest where you walk in for one thing and somehow emerge with five items you didn’t know you needed, plus a snack you definitely didn’t plan on. The real highlight is the staff—friendly, patient, and somehow always managing to keep things running smoothly even when the store is doing its usual “aisle rearrangement chaos simulation.” They greet you like you’re a regular celebrity of the bargain world and can somehow locate items that feel like they were last seen in 2017. It’s got that classic Dollar General energy: quick stops that turn into mini adventures, surprisingly useful finds, and prices that make you feel like you’ve outsmarted the economy for at least five minutes. 10/10 would go in for toothpaste and leave with a broom, chips, and a sense of accomplishment.”
“I went to the gas station and they wanted $9.00 for eye drops. I left and went to Dollar General and paid $4.00 for Clear Eyes. I was so excited when I saw the yellow snack bowl just what I was looking for. Customer Service was wonderful she was very friendly and helpful.”
Burlington Stores is giving its locations a major makeover. The off-price retailer has already transformed about half of its 1,115 stores and plans to complete the redesign across its entire fleet by the end of 2026. The company calls this makeover "Store Experience 2.0." Gone are the cramped aisles and confusing layouts that once defined discount shopping. Instead, Burlington is creating wider walkways, organized sections, and clearer signs to help shoppers find what they need.
Dollar General is adding more of its private label food offerings to stores, following similar moves by big retailers like Walmart and Amazon as store brands keep growing in popularity. The store is launching new items under its own labels, including ice cream, cinnamon rolls, coffee syrups, and salad dressings. The move comes as store brand sales reached $271 billion in 2024, up nearly 4% from 2023.
Daiso, the beloved Japanese retailer known for its variety of affordable household goods, is expanding further in the U.S. market.

Dollar Tree is moving into 170 former 99 Cents Only stores, marking a big shift in the discount retail landscape. The company announced Wednesday it's taking over leases in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas, with plans to reopen the stores under its own brand as early as fall 2024.
Ollie's Bargain Outlet just landed a great deal of its own, winning a $14.6 million bankruptcy auction for 11 former 99 Cents Only store locations across Texas. The discount retail chain pounced after 99 Cents Only abruptly went out of business in March, shuttering all 371 of its stores in California, Arizona, Texas, and Nevada. Ollie's quickly made an opening "stalking horse bid" to grab over a dozen of the empty properties.
